Good World Bar

This place packs them in. Of course that has nothing to do with the Nordic atmosphere and Swedish blondes that seem to congregate here. Although it's died down slightly from its ultra-hip heyday, the Good World still brings in many loyal fans for its scene and backyard garden. There's also a better than average selection of beers.
Fourteen floors up with staggering views of the Harbor, this terrace bar has become a popular spot for the perfect designer martini. With a posh, plush setting and a menu of drinks that is as dizzying at the views themselves, this is a favorite among the Wall Street set.
